"Marriage and eating monkeys weren't what I had in mind"
 
Now, this is why I never travel to Third World countries... or continents, for that matter. There are still plenty of civilized places I haven't seen. ;)

Did I just marry an African chief?


Quote:

The chief is gesticulating wildly and I see spit flying out of his mouth.
I am pretty sure I have offended him but don't understand much of the local Kuranko language, so I ask the man next to me who speaks some English.
"Oh, he's just saying he's made you his wife," he replies. "Nothing to worry about."
I'm still trying to come to terms with accidentally eating monkey last night.
I am not sure what I was expecting when I took a motorbike taxi tour across 320 km (200 miles) of Sierra Leone's eastern back roads.
But marriage and eating monkeys weren't what I had in mind.
